Nuggets End Playoff Drought as they Tip Off Against Spurs in Game 1
For the first time since the 2012-13 season, the Denver Nuggets are returning to the playoffs as they host the San Antonio Spurs for Game 1 at the Pepsi Center. Both teams have been mediocre down the stretch with Denver splitting its last 10 contests and San Antonio winning six of its last 10. The Spurs and Nuggets split their four-game season series and Denver is a 5.5-point favorite in this game with the total Sportsbook at 211 points.
Standout Stats
My Best Bet for San Antonio vs Denver
UNDER 211
San Antonio and Denver have had their difficulties filling the basket in the final stages of the season but have been quite strong defensively. This style of play by both teams has resulted in the UNDER being a profitable play and all four of their meetings this season went UNDER with an average combined score of 205. I think there will be a feeling-out process in the Sportsbook game of the series and the total will go UNDER.
